Can anyone give any insight to these scans?
embryo measurement 2.2mm on Sunday
no embryo seen and just sac seen Tuesday

I am slightly worried because I’m suppose to be 7 weeks. And first positive test was 29/12 so the dates and scans don’t add up

having a nhs scan Friday, but I want to be prepared for what I’m actually going to see and hear

I’m really sorry you’re going through this.
i was measuring 6 weeks one day. And first they couldn’t see anything. Then a fetal pole was seen. Told to come back a week later, and the heartbeat was clear to see.
at my 12 week I was pushed forward 6 days. Which I didn’t think could be correct as this meant I would have been 7 weeks and no heartbeat.
the wait is horrendous. But there are lots of positive outcomes.
not everyone ovulates on day 14 of a 28 cycle.
implantation can take longer.
i had an internal last year for fertility check and my Ovulation strip had said I was ovulating. The scan said it would be another 24 hours before I did. I’m also every 32 days and tend to ovulate on day 18. It’s not accurate. Dates can be off. Distract as much as possible and try and get a scan for a week later rather than 2! That seems cruel to wait so much longer.
everything crossed for you OP

Update
had a scan done at epu
measuring 3.5mm not heartbeat yet
She said she can’t confirm anything at this stage. And can’t go by the private scan.
Got to go back for another scan in two weeks.
I’m taking it as a positive.
Cos it’s grown from 2.2mm on Sunday to 3.5mm
